This is the GNUViech Admin LDAP administration tool project.

Working Environment
===================

You have several options in setting up your working environment.  We recommend
using virtualenv to separate the dependencies of your project from your
system's python environment.  If on Linux or Mac OS X, you can also use
virtualenvwrapper to help manage multiple virtualenvs across different
projects.

Virtualenv Only
---------------

First, make sure you are using virtualenv (http://www.virtualenv.org). Once
that's installed, create your virtualenv::

    $ virtualenv --distribute gvaldap

You will also need to ensure that the virtualenv has the project directory
added to the path. Adding the project directory will allow `django-admin.py` to
be able to change settings using the `--settings` flag.

Virtualenv with virtualenvwrapper
------------------------------------

In Linux and Mac OSX, you can install virtualenvwrapper
(http://virtualenvwrapper.readthedocs.org/en/latest/), which will take care of
managing your virtual environments and adding the project path to the
`site-directory` for you::

    $ mkdir gvaldap
    $ mkvirtualenv -a gvaldap gvaldap-dev
    $ cd gvaldap && add2virtualenv `pwd`


Installation of Dependencies
=============================

Depending on where you are installing dependencies:

In development::

    $ pip install -r requirements/local.txt

For production::

    $ pip install -r requirements.txt
